1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 Nf6 5. Nc3 a6 6. g3 e5 7. Nb3 Be7 8. Bg5 unusual ( 8. Bg2 O-O 9. O-O Be6 10. a4 this would the normal line for g3 against Najdorf ) 8... Be6 9. f4 exf4 10. Bxf4 Nc6 11. Qd2 White is combining g3 with 0-0-0.Liem Quang Le is going for an attack hereTypical is to play g3,Bg2,0-0 and try to play for the control of d5. 11... O-O 12. O-O-O Ne5 13. Nd4 Bd7 surprising move, Black wants to keep the bishop pair 14. Kb1 ( 14. Nf5!? this would make the bishop on d7 play again 14... Bxf5 15. exf5 Rc8 16. Kb1 White is a little bit better here ) 14... Rc8 15. h3 ( 15. Be2 b5 ) 15... b5 16. a3 Qb6 17. g4 b4 18. axb4 Qxb4 19. g5 The game is very sharp as Black has made progress but so did White. Black cannot move the knight as Nd5 would attack b4 and e7 with check. 19... Rxc3! exchange sacrifice ( 19... Nh5?? 20. Nd5 Qxd2 21. Nxe7+ wins for white ) 20. gxf6 the most principled ( 20. Qxc3 Qxc3 21. bxc3 Nxe4 22. Re1 Nxc3+ 23. Ka1 Rb8 24. h4 Bd8 25. Nb3 Bc7 26. Bxe5 dxe5 27. Nc5 Bc6 Black has 2 pawns for the exchange, and active pieces ! ) 20... Rb8! the only move. we reached the critical point. The game hangs on whites decision here. 21. Nb3?? far from the best option for White ( 21. Bb5 an attempt to block the b file 21... Bxf6 22. Qxc3 Qxc3 23. bxc3 axb5 forced so far 24. Nf5 b4 25. c4 Nxc4 26. Nxd6 Na3+ 27. Kc1 b3 28. cxb3 Rxb3 very complex position after most logical moves for each side. Black only has 1 pawn for the exchange but has the bishop pair + a much safe king.Black is threatening to win a second pawn on h3. The second threat against the white king is Bc3 followed by Rb1 checkmate. White has to play Kd2 and both sides can play for the win. ) ( 21. Nb5! the best move, with the idea to take on c3. Quang Liem Le did not find this resource. 21... Bxb5 22. Qxc3 Qxc3 23. bxc3 Bxf6 24. Kc1 and White has survived. Chances for both sides ) ( 21. b3? Nf3! 22. Nxf3 Rxb3+ 23. cxb3 Qxb3+ 24. Ka1 Qa3+ 25. Qa2 Qc3+ ) 21... Rxb3! MVL is ruthless in this game! 22. cxb3 Qxe4+ 23. Ka1 ( 23. Kc1 Bf5! checkmate on b1 is coming. ) 23... Bxf6 Black is winning here 24. Bg2 ( 24. Bxe5 Rxb3 25. Bxf6 Qa4+ 26. Kb1 Bf5+ 27. Bd3 Rxd3 ) ( 24. Qxd6 Rxb3 25. Qd4 Qf3 26. Rh2 Ra3+ 27. bxa3 Nc6 28. Qxf6 Qxd1+ 29. Ka2 gxf6 ) 24... Nf3! opening up the h8-a1 diagonal 25. Qe3 ( 25. Bxf3 Qxf3 26. Qe3 Qh5 27. Qd2 Rxb3 28. Qd5 Qxd5 29. Rxd5 Rxb2 30. Rxd6 Rh2+ 31. Rxf6 Rxh1+ 32. Kb2 gxf6 ) 25... Qc2! if Rb1 then Rxb3! followed by Ra3# 0-1
